Reluctance motors

Unexcited synchronous motors

Reluctance motors are used in textile machinery as drive for godets and spinning pumps. In general they are used in inverter application as single drive or group drive. Reluctance motors can be realised for any voltage/frequency ratio U/f. Speed >15.000min^-1 is possible. A great no. of variations concerning special shaft, flange bearing and housing is available.

Reluctance motors are available for hazardous locations in flameproof design.
